Nassau County, NY Pest Control

The warm, humid summers on Long Island provide an ideal habitat for a variety of pests. When the temperature drops, insects, and other bugs seek safe spaces to overwinter. Your home offers pests a reliable source of food, water, and shelter to breed or hibernate. This means that pests can invade your home any time of the year. Common pests include ants, spiders, and cockroaches.

Ant Control

Social insects that live in large colonies, ants find their way into your home through small cracks. Once a new food source is discovered, scouts leave scented trails for others to follow. Within days, thousands of ants could invade your home. You cannot eradicate an infestation by killing a few ants raiding your pantry or scavenging food from the pet feeder. Preventative measures include sealing places of entry and restricting access to food. Repair leaky faucets, and eliminate other sources of water. You must also implement a strategy to exterminate the infestation.

Spider Control

Arachnids serve a vital role in nature by eating mosquitoes, millipedes and many other insects. If spiders are inside your home, they are likely tracking insects that have infested your house. After they make their way into your home, they hide in various locations. Depending upon the species, a spider will hide in damp, moist areas like your basement or warm, dry locations near vents and the upper corner of shelves and rooms. While not all spiders are venomous, two species of yellow sac spiders inhabit the area. A bite from one of these spiders can infuse a victim with necrotic venom that causes painful wounds, which heal slowly. In addition to eliminating spiders and their prey, you must implement a strategy that prevents these pests from entering your home.

Cockroach Control

The small German and larger American cockroaches are common on Long Island. These pests can contaminate food and food preparation surfaces with a variety of pathogens, including salmonella. Nocturnal insects, cockroaches stay hidden during the day and venture out at night in search of food and water. They breed quickly and can create a massive infestation in a very short period. If the infestation becomes large enough, you will see the roaches during the day. Roaches often hide underneath appliances, near drains and behind cabinets. Knowing where they hide and the species involved helps our knowledgeable staff select the latest and most effective treatment. We can also provide advice on how to prevent future pest problems.
